Me: I see we’re going to have a lot of ocean on this map. May I please use this as an excuse to draw a stupidly elaborate compass rose and a sea monster completely unrelated to the story? Alix’s editor: Yes, but only if you can squeeze my bullet pointed list of things into the border Me: Deal 😎

Draw fanart of all the things you love! You never know where it may lead. Sometimes it leads to getting to draw lady knights for your favourite author with elaborate borders where we tried our damnest to squeeze as many Easter eggs in as possible 😌

That time I got got given the Inkheart job and discovered I only want to draw fight scenes if I can charge them through the roof with homoeroticism 😌

Two characters from the book Inkheart by Cornelia Funke having a fight in a dungeon at sunset. One man has a knife to the other’s throat while pressing him against the wall.

Qrp with an art piece you’re proud of! Pen and ink I wanted to draw this scene from Piranesi from the moment I read it. I loooove drawing statues, and drama. Took me weeks on and off, and every moment was a delight 😌

If you see this, post a knight! She’s technically a queen, but… she’s on the battlefield nonetheless ⚔️
